Hotels Own Introduction

Where Art Meets the Art of Living
At The Florentin, creativity and refined living come together in perfect balance. Set in the heart of vibrant Frankfurt, this elegant retreat offers a calm counterpoint to the city’s dynamic rhythm along the Main.

The Villa: A World Within
At its core lies the historic Villa—an exclusive sanctuary within the hotel. Designed in 1901 by Alfred Günther for Eduard Beit von Speyer, it has long been a place of residence and social exchange. Today, it remains the architectural soul of The Florentin, offering a private, character-filled escape.

Spaces with Story and Soul
A serene winter garden sets the tone for quiet mornings, while elegant salons invite conversation and connection. A refined ladies’ room, private kitchen, and individually designed rooms—each with its own story—create an atmosphere where past and present gently intertwine.

Moments of Indulgence
Two restaurants, a sophisticated bar, and a cigar lounge shape a world of taste and atmosphere in the heart of the city, offering curated experiences for every moment of the day.

A Sanctuary of Wellbeing
Step away from the pace of everyday life and into a dedicated wellness space, where pool, saunas, treatments, and fitness facilities create a restorative oasis designed for relaxation and renewal.

A contemporary tribute to a legendary name, The Carlton unveils a more soulful side of Milan — refined, intimate, and attuned to your rhythm. Behind its iconic address lies a sanctuary where Milanese elegance meets the warmth of a private residence, creating a setting that feels both distinguished and deeply personal.

A Culinary Ode on Via della Spiga
On one of Milan’s most celebrated streets, Fulvio Pierangelini presents a new expression of Italian cuisine. His vision is radically authentic and meticulously refined — cooking as an act of devotion to the purity of each ingredient and the quiet virtuosity behind every plate.

Hotels Own Introduction

A journey that sets the tone
The adventure begins long before arrival. Travelling to Grand Hotel Belvedere aboard the legendary Wengernalp cogwheel train feels like stepping into another era, where time slows and nature takes centre stage. As the landscapes unfold, a sense of wonder signals the start of an alpine escape unlike any other.

Endless alpine experiences
From summer to winter, snow-dusted peaks and emerald valleys frame a world of discovery. Ski the legendary slopes of Grindelwald, including the iconic Lauberhorn descent, glide above the Alps on a paragliding adventure, or explore miles of hiking and horseback riding trails. Ascend to the Jungfraujoch—Europe’s highest railway station at 3,454 metres—or follow the Royal Walk to the summit of Männlichen for panoramic views that linger long after.

Rooms shaped by the mountains
From expansive windows and generous balconies, alpine vistas captivate the senses. Inside, interiors echo the surrounding peaks through refined simplicity and local craftsmanship. Spruce parquet floors, natural lime walls, green granite bathrooms, and thick woollen textiles create spaces that feel both warm and contemporary—an atmosphere of calm, grounded luxury inspired by the raw beauty of the Alps.

A culinary expression of place
At Grand Hotel Belvedere, dining is guided by authenticity and restraint. Restaurants, terrace, and bars celebrate the region through wild harvests, local produce, seasonal rhythms, and modern technique. The result is a universal dining experience at Brasserie Belvedere, a lively ambience at Sonnenbad, and inviting, intimate moments in the hotel’s bars—each defined by thoughtful detail and alpine character.

A spa rooted in stillness
Inspired by Japanese hot springs, the Belvedere Spa is a minimalist sanctuary devoted to deep relaxation. Mineral-rich waters and personalised Susanne Kaufmann treatments invite restoration, while the relaxation room offers herbal tea and uninterrupted views of the Jungfrau—an experience as soothing as the mountains themselves.

Winter thrills, alpine legends
With nearly 215 kilometres of slopes framed by the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau, Wengen is a playground for winter enthusiasts. Take on the Lauberhorn, the longest downhill run in World Cup history, or explore the Grindelwald-First snowpark, a haven for snowboarding and freestyle skiing. For those who seek exhilaration, few places compare.
